a high-resolution assembly that places the majority of barley genes in order. The new resource provides the sequences of nearly all genes and associated regulatory regions, which will offer new direction to researchers seeking to improve barley yield and quality through functional genomics and genomics-assisted breeding.
The work, highlighted in the journal Nature, provides a detailed overview of the functional portions of the barley genome, revealing the order and structure of most of its 32,0
